Martin Clunes television show Doc Martin causes village uproar - Telegraph Celebrity news Martin Clunes television show Doc Martin causes village uproar Residents of a Cornish fishing village are in revolt against its use as a location for the filming of the television comedy drama Doc Martin. Image 1 of 2 Port Isaac provides a picturesque backdrop for Martin Clunes and Katherine Parkinson in Doc Martin Photo: ITV Image 1 of 2 Tobermory, Mull: At its peak, the BBC children's series Balamory attracted 160,000 extra visitors a year to the village, which has a population of just 700 Photo: GETTY By Richard Savill 1:26PM BST 13 Aug 2008 Some residents in Port Isaac are calling for filming to be banned from the village because an influx of tourist visitors is causing traffic chaos in the narrow streets. "We have had the golden egg from the filming and we have had enough visitors now," said one resident, Ted Charles.

"Surely they have enough footage of Port Isaac on file so they don't need to come back?" The village is used as a location for the fictional town of 'Portwenn' in the ITV series, which stars Martin Clunes as a grumpy GP. On Monday night more than 30 residents filled the village school hall to protest to St Endellion parish council about the parking problems. They said tourists have been dumping their vehicles by a children's play area, and are concerned a child could be killed.

It is extremely dangerous, especially when they want to go to the park." Mr Charles added: "We have heard that next year they will be filming from May to August. That would be a complete disaster and the parking problem will only escalate.

"Friends who have enjoyed coming to the village for years have not been able to stay in holiday cottages because they have been rented to the crew." A B & B owner, Marion Andrews, said the village had become too busy for regular customers who wanted peace and quiet. In response the parish council said it was writing to the county highways department to request yellow lines to try and ease the parking problem. David Phelps, chairman of St Endellion Parish Council said parking had been a problem for years but was being exacerbated by Doc Martin fans. Port Isaac has previously been used for films and other television shows including the 1970s series 'Poldark'. In recent years, the village has become home, for part of the year, to a number of celebrities, including the designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, the actress Julie Peasgood and the presenter Lorne Spicer. Nearly 40 per cent of properties in the village are now second homes and the cost of the average home has been pushed to £280,000. A spokesman for ITV said she was unable to comment on the complaints as a series of Doc Martin had not been filmed this year.

She said: "We have not been near Port Isaac since 2007 and have no plans to return until 2009." Doc Martin has attracted up to 10 million viewers in Britain and is a hit in more than a dozen countries including Australia, Belgium and Romania. Local estate agents Estuary Estates said the show had raised the profile of the village and was seen as an added attraction. A spokesman said: "They are making a fourth series of Doc Martin, so we always mention this in the particulars. It is a very sought after area." Speaking previously, Clunes said: "I love working on Doc Martin, being in Cornwall, and being able to work with my wife Philippa, who is the producer. "At the end of the day's filming we were able to go back to a beautiful house along the coast from Port Isaac, which has stunning sea views.

"And it means I was home before my daughter Emily had to go to bed, which doesn't happen when I am filming in London." Port Wenn | Doc Martin | Port Isaac | Cornwall Privacy & Cookies Filming in Port Isaac The Village of Port Isaac, was frequently used as a 'set' for filming the Poldark series, and 'Nightmare Man' where it was beautifully depicted albeit as a village in the Hebrides! More recently the Port Isaac has become associated with the TV series 'Doc Martin' ( in which Port Isaac was tranformed into the fictional Port Wenn) and the Film ' Saving Grace'. Doc Martin a British television comedy drama starred Martin Clunes as a doctor whose tactless manner causes mayhem in the small Cornish community of Port Wenn. Created by Dominic Minghella, The series was filmed on location in the village of Port Isaac, North Cornwall, with filming of most interior scenes and production carried out in a converted barn at a local farm. martin Clunes plays surgeon Martin Ellingham, whose glittering career comes crashing down around him when he develops a phobia which prevents him conducting operations.

Saving Grace was a comedy/crime film, starring Brenda Blethyn, Craig Ferguson and Martin Clunes filmed in 2000. After Grace Trevethyn's husband commits suicide, he leaves her in economic ruins, Grace left by herself is now facing loosing her house because all the money her husband owed. Together with her gardener she uses her plant-cultivation ability to grow marijuana. Amy Foster or Swept from the Sea has it was called when released in America, is a 1997 movie based on a 1903 story, Amy Foster by Joseph Conrad. It stars Rachel Weisz, Vincent Perez, Ian McKellen, Kathy Bates and Zoe Wanamaker and was directed by Beeban Kidron. The story concerns a Russian, unable to speak English but able to play chess, shipwrecked on the coast of Cornwall on his way to America. More recently (October 2005), the village was again used for the backdrop to the forthcoming TV production of Rosumand Pilcher's The Shell Seekers. Filming took place in the village for a week with the productions star, Vanessa Redgrave, filming many of her scenes in the main street.

Site content and photography © Doc Martin's Portwenn surgery set to re-open next month for series 6 filming | Tellyspotting Doc Martin's Portwenn surgery set to re-open next month for series 6 filming On: March 25, 2013, By: Bill Young , In: Drama , Locations , Uncategorized , 15 Comments This just in, the long-awaited return of Doctor Martin Ellingham’s surgery to the fictional village of Portwenn is just around the corner. As many Doc Martin fans already are aware, series 6 begins filming in April for a new set of eight episodes for ITV that should premiere in the UK this Fall and Spring 2014 on public television stations in the States. The Cornwall village of Port Isaac will be transformed into the fictional village of Portwenn with cast and crew making the trek from April through July of this year.

Should you decide to make the journey to ‘Portwenn’, a quick walk around will take you past many of the immediately recognizable filmed locations in Doc Martin as seen on the map below, including the Doc’s surgery, Bert’s Restaurant, the Chemist, The Platt, the Quay, the School, Louisa’s old and new houses and Wenn House. 1 Doc Martins Surgery….7 Louisa’s Old House 2 Berts Restaurant…….8 Louisa’s New House 3 Chemist………………9 Wenn House (The Bay Hotel) 4 The Platt……………..10 Funeral Parlour (series 5) 5 Quay………………….11 Garage (series 5) 6 School Should you decide to make the trip, check out The Bay Hotel , which doubles as Wenn House in the series. If you do, don’t forget to say hi to The Bay Hotel’s resident Great Dane, Gino, Port Isaac’s official RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) mascot. Owned by The Bay Hotel’s proprietor, Gino even has his own RNLI-branded lifejacket equipped with two saddlebags which have been embroidered and donated for him to wear on his daily village patrols.

Lots of questions to be answered in series 6, the main one, obviously, is whether or not the Doc and Louisa finally get married. When asked recently as to what news he might be able to share with Doc Martin fans around the world, series star Martin Clunes said, “…“I’m thrilled to be going back to the beautiful North Cornish coast to shoot series six of Doc Martin. Our challenge this season will be to force Louisa (Caroline Catz) and the doctor to live together with baby James, which as far as I can see has disaster written all over it. And then there’s the dog and Dame Eileen, but not necessarily in that order!”.” Unfortunately, at this point, not too much is known about what’s in store for the residents of Portwenn in series 6 but what we do know is that Dame Eileen Atkins will return as Martin’s Aunt Ruth along with Ian McNeice as local restaurateur Bert, Joe Absolom as Bert’s son Al and John Marquez as local police officer PC Joe Penhale. The rumor is that this will be the final series of Doc Martin but we refuse to even think the unthinkable at this point in time….

Related Posts Cornwall: Visit Port Isaac, home to TV's Doc Martin | simonseeks Cornwall: Visit Port Isaac, home to TV's Doc Martin Rugged cliffs beyond the harbour wall When TV location scouts were on the lookout for somewhere to film Doc Martin, they chose Port Isaac - and who can blame them? Find out how they fell in love with this idyllic Cornish fishing village Port Isaac is a contender for the prettiest village in Britain, but don’t just take my word (or photographs) for it. When film and TV producers want a stunning seaside setting, lights, camera and action come here. The village has played host to the 1970’s TV show Poldark, Rosamunde Pilcher’s The Shell Seekers and more recently ITV1’s comedy–drama series Doc Martin, featuring Martin Clunes, where it stars as the fictional village Portwenn. Although it attracts its fair share of tourists, Port Isaac is not yet over-run or reliant on tourism, although its shops do a roaring trade in “Welcome to Portwenn” memorabilia. It is still a working fishing village, and chances are you will come across fishermen unloading their catch on the seafront, known as The Platt.

As well as being one of Britain’s prettiest villages, it is also one of its more remote – the nearest town, Wadebridge, is ten miles away or a half-hour drive on windy rural roads. Be sure to enter the postcode PL29 3RD in your satellite navigation system before setting off. Parking For those not staying the night and enjoying the luxury of a free car-park, parking in Port Isaac can be a pain. There are two small pay-and-display car parks just past Port Isaac on the Port Gaverne side, from where it’s a ten minute walk to the heart of the village. Until recently, the best place to park was on the beach for those willing to brave the unbelievably narrow lanes of Port Isaac to get there. But as from 1 July 2010, the beach car park has been permanently closed to the public – a wise decision as cars left there were at the mercy of the tides, and there would be frequent stories of vehicles being swept out to sea. There is a new car park next to the playing fields opposite the school on the main road into Port Isaac from Wadebridge, although it can be a twenty-minute walk to Port Isaac from here.

So what is there to see and do in Port Isaac? Take a hike For keen walkers the 630-mile South West Coast Path, which skirts the whole of Cornwall as well as parts of Devon and Somerset, passes Port Isaac. Slightly less effort is the 3-and-a-half-mile hike to Port Quin along the coastal path. Starting at the harbour, you will climb steeply on Roscarrock Hill – the fourth cottage on the left after the public toilets is Doc Martin's surgery. You will soon pass yellow-flowering gorse bushes, with their coconutty aroma and spot rare birds. The hike can be fairly strenuous with some steep inclines, but it is worth it for the views back across Port Isaac and of the rugged cliffs along this stretch of the north Cornish coast. Port Quin Port Quin was once a fishing village of the same size and scale as Port Isaac, but a great storm in 1698 killed all its fishermen and put paid to the fishing industry. Now more of a hamlet than a village, there is nothing to keep you in Port Quin for long. Rather than backtracking around the coast, there is a shorter, gentler walk inland through fields to Port Isaac.

Fisherman's Friends If you're lucky, you might get to enjoy a performance from The Port Isaac Fisherman's Friends - a group of fishermen (and a few of their friends) who sing sea shanties. They hold regular summertime concerts on Friday evenings outdoors on The Platt – read the noticeboard by the harbour for times. They've recently found fame, and have signed a major label recording contract – if you can't see them live, buy their CD on-line: Food and drink The Golden Lion (Fore Street; 01208 880336)‎ is a great little boozer with an enviable location facing the harbour – its balcony and beer garden are great places from which to sit and drink in the views with a nice pint of Cornish ale. The Golden Lion is Portwenn's village pub in Doc Martin, referred to as The Crab and Lobster, although when the series is being filmed tourists are kept well away. Just down the hill from The Golden Lion is The Mote Restaurant (The Platt; 01208 880226; ) – its terrace is a favourite with Doc Martin's characters.

The locally sourced menu is of a high standard, but remember to book a table in advance. There is an excellent confectionary shop directly behind the harbour on Fore Street selling Cornish fudge and ice-cream as well as souvenirs of Port Isaac (and Portwenn). Back to basics But the real draw of spending time in Port Isaac is to go back to basics and make the most of its quaint, laid back charm. Watching the fishermen in action, with a delicious Kelly’s ice-cream in hand, crabbing in the rock-pools left at low-tide, wandering through the narrow lanes with their ancient cottages or even going on a fishing trip to catch your own supper can easily fill a day. Where to stay Port Isaac makes a great day-trip from one of Cornwall’s more established resorts – Newquay is 25 miles to the south down the Atlantic Highway (A39).

For those who wish to stay the night and experience the beauty of the village once the day-trippers have gone home, The Old School Hotel (Fore Street) is a superb base, with doubles from £90.The 15 bedrooms are named after school subjects – we stayed in the Geography room, although ask for English for the best views of the harbour below. The hotel stars in Doc Martin as the village school, while there is free parking for guests in the “playground”. Recommended For: Doc Martins Cornwall Coach Tour Doc Martins Cornwall Newquay, Port Isaac & St. Ives Fans of the TV series, Doc Martin will enjoy this lovely five day tour to Cornwall staying in it’s most famous resort, Newquay. The tour will include a guided visit to the fictional Cornish seaside village of Portwenn which in reality is Port Isaac, a small and picturesque fishing village set on the Atlantic Coast of North Cornwall. Port Isaac has been an attractive fishing village since the 14th century and its narrow winding streets, old white-washed cottages and traditional slate-fronted buildings are of architectural and historical importance.

Once a busy port it has recently become a popular location for both film and TV series including TV’s Doc Martin and the 1970’s series, Poldark. Newquay is a highly popular seaside resort with a fine position amidst the cliff-tops at the heart of Cornwall’s dramatic North Atlantic Coast. Once a small fishing village, Newquay still retains its intimate atmosphere and simple beauty and is today the premier resort of the Royal Duchy of Cornwall. The town boasts an array of activities including the busy harbour and attractive shopping areas. Accommodation The Carnmarth Hotel is set on Newquay’s exclusive Headland Road, just yards away from Fistral Beach and the links of the golf course roll away from the front entrance! Ideally located away from the town’s vibrant nightlife scene, yet conveniently close enough for you to enjoy a leisurely stroll into town. Hotel facilities include reception, lift, restaurant, lounge bar and all bedrooms have en-suite bathroom, TV free Wi-Fi and tea /coffee maker.

Whilst many of the interior scenes are shot at Roscarrock Manor Farm which is just outside Port Isaac and home to a number of sets, most notably the doctors surgery, there are still a number of star studded spots to visit (or view from afar) in Port Isaac. Stop by the Liberal Club which is the village shop in the series and stand in Martin Clunes shoes by enjoying a pint in the Golden Lion Pub which has been used sociably by the cast and crew as well as for filming. There are also a handful of private residences that double as locations such as Mrs Tishells chemist shop which is a house called Little Dolphins in Middle Street, Louisas home on Fore Street and Berts Restaurant which is a stones throw from the doctors surgery. Alongside the village of Port Isaac itself, Fern Cottage is one of the most recognisable Doc Martin locations and draws fans from all over the world keen to get a shot of Doctor Ellinghams surgery.

It is easily found in Port Isaac by walking 100 metres past the harbour and up the hill towards the coast path for Port Quin, and as well as the kudos of welcoming the blood phobic doctor, Fern Cottage enjoys impressive views over the village and natural harbour.
